Building a unique experience for each traveler across channels

With fierce competition in the airlines industry and a wide array of users, delivering a unique experience is a challenge and airBaltic was no exception.

The challenge for the airline was to build value-driven supporting channels and services to deliver a brand experience that consistently surprises and delights their users. In fact, this was a need of the hour as user needs and preferences kept changing at each stage of the life cycle.

To overcome this challenge, their primary goal was to build a unique experience for each traveler on their digital channels. This was associated with a secondary goal of improving their main KPIs like conversion rate and average session duration on their website.

Testing home page variations to drive conversions

airBaltic started with personalizing their home page for different audience segments. The idea behind this was to test different versions of their website homepage to see which user experience performs the best.

Keeping the primary KPI in focus, they began A/B/n on their home page for a week with 3 different variations, also keeping the original version of the home page.

5.8% conversion rate uplift on the winning variation

At the end of this 3-week experiment, airBaltic found out that an alternate version of the home page was performing better than the original version, both in terms of user experience and average session duration. airBaltics observed a conversion rate uplift of 5.8% on the winning variation.
